The condition of an organism of a cow characterizes her general physiological status. Without the automated means of an assessment of a condition of an organism of cattle experts on dairy farms will not be able to consider this important parameter at decision - making.
The AfiWeigh system is the automatic scales measuring the weight of cows on the way from the milking hall. This system allows to estimate also cows on suitability to insemination, efficiency of the consumed forages and possible postnatal problems which are reflected in the body weight of a cow.
When using scales of AfiWeigh as autonomous system with their help it is possible to estimate dynamics of growth of calfs and a telok in comparison with the expected schedules of an increase in weight.
Advantages.
AfiWeigh can provide effective management of a farm due to the following functions:
fixation of an increase in the weight of cows that helps to define time for insemination; cows with positive power balance of an organism of the postnatal period show increase in body weight;
measurements of an increase or loss in the weight of the cows calving several times in the period of a lactation that indicates efficiency of the consumed forages and can reveal potential mistakes in feeding strategy;
identification of essential changes of body weight during the sukhostoyny period that indicates the wrong feeding of a cow;
calculation of automatic distribution of forages for the cows who are contained on a pasture according to their weight.
